Burning leaves

Burning leaves is an offense as it creates lots of pollution and associated health problems. However that's the usual practice in our colony. Inspite of repeated requests to not do the same, the same is always done. The society cannot make a dump for leaves to make compost, which is the suggested best practice.

HT connect highlights the plight of Geetanjali

No response on records/data requested

SMS sent to Geetanjali residents, pls step forward and join hands to bring positive change

The flame has already been lit and we want you all to participate in the reform process. Residents should step forward, question the existing defunct practices of the Lok Sewak Society.

Sms has been sent to few members whose mobile numbers were available in our 2007 Telephone Directory.

Society is NOT even able to publish new directory every year.

Society office timing changed. Why?

For the past several years the society office timings were:

Mon-Fri: 6 to 8pm

Sat: Holiday

Sun: 10 to 12 noon

Directions were issued by Registrar of Co-operative societies to the managing committee that records may be shown to any members as per society office timings.

Instead of cooperating with members they have now issued a notice on 2^nd May’10:

“Society office will be OPEN only on Sunday’s 10-12noon”

This important notice has NOT been circulated to the members and residents of Geetanjali Enclave till 9th May'10

This society is also functioning as RWA. As such, the members and residents have to approach daily to the society for various issues.

Q) Is it enough for society office to open only on Sundays?

Q) Whom to contact during rest of the week?

Q) Why sudden change of timings and NO information to members & residents?

No system of Letter receiving by managing committee of Lok Sewak society

As directed by Registrar of cooperative society we had gone to the society office at 10:00 on 2nd May'10 for inspection of records. Since my dad is 66yrs of age and heart patient for more than 20yrs, I accompanied him to the society office.

It was surprising to note that they will NOT allow me sitting next to my father.

Hence we had no option but to give them a letter requesting I may be allowed to accompany my father on health grounds.

The office assistant refused to accept this letter. Managing committee directed peon Shri Baijnath to receive the letter on their behalf.

Not a single managing committee member dared to put his signature on the letter.

The above act on part of managing committee is a clear sign of disrespect to any member of the society and seems like a prognosis of increasing mental bankruptcy

This proves that managing committee neither wants to share the information nor cooperates with any member when some member visits for some work.

Right to Information for every member from Lok Sewak society

We had requested three times in writing to the president of the society for supplying the " Rules & Regulations of Lok Sewak Society ", " Minutes of managing committee meetings ", updated List of Resident members ", etc.

Surprisingly three times the reply was " Members cannot have ANY information from society and should approach the office of Registrar of cooperative society "

Finally Registrar office issued the orders :

" Society was directed to allow the inspection of the records by any members"


Q) Why our Lok sewak society denied to share the even the basic information like " Updated List of Members "

Q) What they want to hide from the members ?

Q) Why only managing committee thinks that they are only working for the welfare of society and residents ? Approach should be to take the maximum participation from members and residents ?


It is an appeal to the members and residents to ASK for any information & cooperation required for enrollment of New members.
